CW Battrick Cup

7.2 W Hodge to Snodin
Snodin practices bolting the stable door while Heads starts to reset the stumps.

One down, 9 to go.

Not much difference really, your bowling ratings are basically the same and your batting ratings are the same. Unless they rested players it makes me wonder what Withington have been doing this season, resting on their laurels probably.

Had a good hitout against buggsy, Whitehorne and Cuss did the heavy lifting but the second-stringers didn't disgrace themselves.

Nah, no players rested -- couldn't log in as BT was down for a bit yesterday, so it was default orders all the way. Unfortunately, it was all wrong for a dusty pitch on a sunny day.

Still, the Ponies put in a fine bowling performance and Canning was masterful with the bat. MOTM by a mile. Well played!

You know, if tozzer beats Ponies, he could theoretically take the group. I would so lol at that.

Smith doing alright. A few upsets and close matches on the card. Good opening round.

Eh, nothing against Smiths team, but Jamee rested Kealey. Thats why he is losing. Stupid move tstl. Though even with Kealey, i think Jamee would have lost on the day, it just would have been closer.

In saying that, Jamee could still win, but it will take a massive knock from Warnock, and his other bats will have to know how to give Warnock 75% of the strike.

Nah, Fillery is pretty gun IMO. CD held off Bardle extremely well to their credit.

Agreed, if it was my team, Bardle would have taken 9 fa or something.

Hmm.

Jamee taking this game back, needs some wickets soon.

 

[Nate]

If he gets out, it'll be the next guy tbh.

 

[Bobisback]

End of Over 40: 210-4, runrate=5.25, reqrunrate=6.50 (274-7)
Pryde 10-0-66-0
Todd* 40 (49 balls)
Warnock 107 (113 balls)
Last Wicket: Fillery c. Heads b. Seneviratne 26 (FOW: 120/4)

Would say Smith is just infront, but Warnock a huge threat.\

EDIT:

40.5 W Lambert to Wanless
Tries to force onto the off side, but the ball moves into him and it's nicked onto middle stump.
40.4 W Lambert to Warnock
...and he's out! Caught and bowled!

No longer a threat.

Beard XI beat Clutha Valley CC by 9 wickets.

Clutha Valley CC 203-10 (48.4o): Ohalloran 56, Martin 52*, Oleary 5-34
Beard XI 204-1 (41.0o): Bromby 107*, Alshaun 84, Khotsofalang 1-44

Was pretty fortunate my PFLs allowed me to put out a full team after a GFI on Friday. First time the first XI has played consecutive matches all season, I think.

Happy with that win. Kealey would've won him the game imo.

For that to happen, **** actually has to rest Canning.

 

[Bobisback]

Just ask him to open the bat with Canning, thats almost as good as resting him.

 

[NZTailender]

Hahaha. Harsh but fair.
